It’s hard to say. Let’s not forget that the TX Pro is just a TX comp but with a softer plastic, and tech inserts and therefore slightly heavier. Or, in the words of one shop friend I won’t name, it’s just the somewhat crappier identical twin of the tx comp that Scarpa felt would provide the kinder gentler introduction to NTN that someone who had been wallowing in worn out T1s and G3 (!) bindings would find an easy transition.
I’m not on Craig’s forum much but it’s filled with tele skiers who wanted a tech fitting tx comp since the tx pro was so soft yet had no weight advantage. https://www.backcountrytalk.com/forum/gear/boots/3723-
So back when Scarpa minions said the tx comp was the benchmark for the Unicorn, I wasn’t at all surprised. Why would the Pro be a benchmark? Customers complained about bellows collapse on it. It had no advantages vs Comp. We merely put up with it to ski Meijdo and Lynx bindings. And it worked fine, but Comp would ski better with no downside.
